Be it knoivntnat I, .lneas Kont, a citizen fO the United States, residing at Inwood, in

-thecounty ojl Lyon and State olowsnhave invented certain new and useful( luiprove- .inents in GarLiar-eflolt Sockets,y of which the ollowingi-s afspecification. .y

`A Jurther object of the linvention is to prcvijde, aid icejof the above charactery that is simple 1n construction, strong and dur the continuance of the following description.

ln the drawings Figure 1 is a sectional view `illustrating the manner of applying the invention. y Figure 2 is a plan view of the bolt-socket, the head of the bolt being removed to more clearly disclose the socket.

Figure 3 is a bottom 'plan view of the socket. l n

Figure 4 is a cross section thereoic taken on line 4--4 of Figure 3.- f l Figure 5 is a side view of the socket, and, Figure 6 is a cross sectional view thereof taken on line 6--6 of Figure 3.

The invention is particularly adapted to the repairing of old machinery and serves to provide means for keeping such machinery in shape. y

In the drawings, 10 and 11 designate machine parts held together by carriage bolt,

12. As is well 'known7 ever)7 carriage bolt is provided with a shoulder 13'under the head 14 which, if it exceeds the diameter of the bolt shank at all, exceeds it only by a very slight degree andy for that reason the bolt hole is generally made the same size outsiteand bevelled onthe yvide penetrating edges 18 asshown.

oi the bolt.` Consequently, the bolthas to .be driven 4into the wooden support 11 so `that ity wili not kturn `when thenutQl 'is tightened. becomes rusted on the bolt and when it is `required to loosen or tighten the nut the However, the nut frequently shoulder is unable toxprevent thebolt 'from turning, or, on the other hand, the bolt is so solidly driven into the wood that it is spoiled when driven out. lt is the purpose `of this ,'ni/ention to obviate diiiiculty in ,replacing racarriage bolt and to permit such` replace` ments to ,he eiiected conveniently i without.destruction .to either vthebolt or chine. kThis 4is accomplishedlhy the ,pro-

`vvision of a square' board, tubularsocket 16 ed 'to bey driven in either :the old or a new bolt hole provided. to receive the same.

. .'Theside walls 17 are made straighton the inside to pro- These edges prevent the wood 'troni `splitting;when the socket is driven inplace.l Theoend walls l19, on the other hand, havetheir edges bev* elled on the outside as indicated at 20 so that `the socket can be more easily driven into the woodsupport. Ey having the end and side walls alternately bevelled upon their respective inner and outer faces, the placing `r-iade from any suitable material and adapt- A soy of the socket in proper position is more y easily accomplished since these alternating bevelsserve to guide the socket during the driving operation and prevent it from being positioned inaccurately. n

Projecting laterally from one face oi? the socket isa wedge-shaped lip 21, extending vertically of the socket and positioned cen-A trally betweenjthe side edges thereof as illustrated. This lip is provided on its cutting edge with a notch 22 into which the fibers of the wood support 11 are permitted to expand for retaining the socket in place inr the bolt holeU The notched lip braces the socket 'against any torsional strain and serves to hold it more firmly in place, the ypractical application of the invention the supportll may be prepared with .a socketrecess conforming to the shape oi the socket or .the latter can be used toform its own socket by being` forcibly driven vinto the wood.'the bevelled edges` at the penetrating end of the latter serving to 'cut away through the fibers of the wood until'the socket is properly placed. kThe carriage bolt may then be .inserted intothe socket with the the nut.

As is obvious, the socket can be constructed of various sizes to fit different bolts and may likewise be constructed in anyshape n the like, comprising a -Hat-sided bolt socket or design to suit the occasion.

Freni the foregoing it is believed that the advantages and novel features of the invention have been readily understood and therefore further detailed description is deemed Vllhat is claimed is l. An anti-turning device for bolts and the like, comprising a flat-sided bolt socket having a penetrating edge alternately bevelled on the inner and outer sides throughout its perimeter.

2. An anti-turning device for bolts and the like, comprising a. fiat-sided socket adapted to be placed at one end of bolt hole and having a penetrating edge alternately bevelled on the inner and outer sides throughout its perimeter, and projection laterally oli' one side of the socket to provide anchoring means therefor.

y3. An anti-turning device for bolts and the like, comprising a flat-sided tubular socket adapted to be placed at one end of a bolt hole and having a penetrating edge bevelled alternately on the inner and outer sides of the socket throughout its perimeter, and a notched retaining lip projecting laterally from one side of the socket.

'4. An 'anti-turning device for bolts and the like, comprising a flat-sided bolt socket and a notched retaining lip projecting laterally from one side of the socket.

5. An anti-turning device for bolts and adapted to be positioned at one end of a bolt hole'and having a penetrating edgebevelled alternately on the inner and outer side of the socket and a Wedge-shaped retaining lip projecting laterally from yone side of the socket to provide retaining means therefor.r`

6. An anti-turning device for shouldered bolts and the like, comprising a Hat-sided, tubular, socketadapted to be placed at one end of a bolt hole for receiving the shoulder of the bolt, said socket having end Walls provided with outside bevels adjacent the penet-rating end, and side Walls provided atl/their penetratingends with inside bevels said inside and outside bevels serving as guides for positioning the socket with respectv to the bolt holes when forcibly driven in place.
